To ensure cars didn’t take back control of #Paris streets as the pandemic was “ending” (no, it hasn’t ended), like they have in so many cities, Mayor #AnneHidalgo made sure that 60k parking spaces and many streets were permanently transformed into seating for restaurants, people places and bike-lanes.
Leadership.

@BrentToderian Santa Barbara (California) has kept their State Street closed to traffic, down near the beach, with cafe seating and pedestrian zones. I enjoy it.
